Deviled Eggs, Purgatory Edition

16 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • For the eggs
  • 12 extra large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt (fat content is up to you; I think nonfat works fine)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • Suggested toppings
  • Truffle salt (my favorite)
  • Smoked pimenton
  • Chopped olives
  • Ras al hanout
  • A dab of tomato paste
  • Pesto
  • Marinated mushrooms
  • Grated Parmesan
  • Sweet pickle relish
  • Preserved lemon

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Once the water is rolling, turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for thirteen minutes. Remove the eggs to a bowl of ice water, allow to cool, and peel. Slice the eggs in half, wiping down your knife with a damp towel between cuts.
  2. 2
    Remove the egg yolks to a bowl and mix with the mayonnaise, yogurt, and mustard. Combine with a fork (if you want the filling perfectly creamy, you can do this in a food processor).
  3. 3
    Spoon the filling into a plastic baggie, snip off a corner, and pipe into the egg whites. Be generous! Arrange on a platter and top with truffle salt, your favorite spice mixture, smoked Spanish paprika, chopped olives, or whatever your heart desires.
